Is this possible?

[bburke]

I'm looking for some coding ideas of how to use VB to modify the per
user settings in Outlook 2003. In particular I want to be able to
script the settings in:

Tools addressbook/tools options,

show this address list first
keep personal addresses in
and
when sending mail, check names using these address lists in the
following order

Is this possible and can you point me toward some good programming
examples for coding this?

Thanks!

Bob

You can't code that. You could probably use a configuration file to set up
certain things when Outlook is deployed to begin with using a PRF file. See
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/ork2003/HA011403051033.aspx for
information for creating Outlook 2003 PRF files.

Thanks Ken. I was hoping it could be done using a script similar to
the following:

I've looked at the ORK and am using it for some settings, but this is
going to be a pushed upgrade deployment.
